I Don't Understand Why Democrats Keep Calling For Free Speech

[ChristisKing]

A distinction without a difference.

There's a BIG difference actually as US soldiers are not terrorists as one is fighting on the defense and other offense.

 

[Unkotare]

The guys whose rhetoric led up to a bloody, violent, revolution, those founding fathers?

Yeah, have some Common Sense.

 

[ChristisKing]

Its irrelevant what I find threatening. Its up to the authorities.

Now.

There is an example of stomping on free speech.

Not disagreeing with you there but all I can read is the title as I can't see the article.

The threat to free speech in this country isn't confined to the radical. Trump forcing museums to change exhibits and teachers to only teach the Hallmark Channel version of history because its "uplifting" is just as dangerous.

Spoken like a true fascist OP.

TDS so thoroughly that this is the best you can come up with?

Sorry if honesty is a bummer to you....or not.

What about Tyler Robinson? If anybody put a stop to him and his nasty speech that he had posted on social media Charlie Kirk would still be alive today.

What about him? I know that thought crimes are a priority for you.
Y’all have no idea what you are wishing for.

 

[JWBooth]

That was a different kind of violence. It was the work of war to gain our freedom. This is terrorism.

Same bunch that dreamed up the alien and sedition act.

He was threatening to assassinate somebody!! Even his roommate said that he was and showed it to the police!! That was a true threat. Had he been stopped Charlie Kirk would still be here.

Perfectly legit reason for investigation and surveillance, nothing more until some criminal act took place. Talking shit is not an overt act.

That was a criminal act in itself.

A lot of you keep asking me this question. Even some of you being Republicans. Well this is why. Tell me honestly, do you think that any of these people should be allowed to walk free in society?

Limits for actions and direct threats, not for speech.

The government isn't doing anything during the current Kirk blowback, it's individual people doing it.

The Right has set the bar for complaining at murder wishes and cheering murder.

The left sets the bar at supporting restrictions on abortion and using the wrong pronouns.

 

[martybegan]

Did Kirk ever advocate murdering someone or celebrate someone being murdered?

 

[ChristisKing]

I don't get your point as Charlie Kirk never threatened to murder anybody but maybe we're somewhat on the same page for once?

Limits for actions and direct threats, not for speech.

Yeah but wouldn't you find this to be extremely threatening? Especially since the people involved have a history of violence?

Risks we take to have a 1st amendment and a free society.

Just ask Kirk pointed out the risks we take for having a 2nd amendment.

Hell we take risks by having some of our other amendments, like the 4th.

If Charlie Kirk had put a fraction of the effort he did on his main boogieman of "Black on Black crime" towards white on white crime instead, he would have definitely be still alive today.

The thing is, modern Americans interpret their "rights" as being able to say or do whatever they want. Like blasting their music so loud in their car that dishes literally move across the tables in the local eateries as they pass by, while people are trying to relax and eat. Some people really think this is ok, just like some people think it's ok to call for violence against people they don't like, citing "free speech". Some people think it's also ok to flaunt risque behavior in front of children or have sexually explicit content in media which children can access.

I'll be er forget one time, I took my family to Cape Cod. We drove up into Provincetown (know for it's gay population and gay entertainment). There were men in leather assless chaps running around slapping each other's butts and making out in the streets. I hauled our asses right out of there. My son was just 2 but he didn't need to see that. And here's the kicker, I told someone else about that eventually and they actually said "don't go there if you don't like it"! Can you believe it?? Like, how about going to a gay bar if you want to do sexually explicit gay things, instead of being exhibitionistic about it on public streets?!

That liberalism for you.
Liberals think they should be able to say or do whatever they want and everyone else just has to go away. There doesn't need to be any kind of standard that we all have to follow and keep it in our pants and keep it under our hats a little when we are in public. That's actually how America used to be for a very long time until wokeism came about. People generally had respect for each other and no one was really more entitled under the law than anyone else, unless of course corrupt judges were involved or something like that.

Liberalism has rotted our country to the core.

No need to regulate. Designate them as terrorists. Use of deadly force is necessary to neutralize terrorists. Problem solved.
